Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of experience on completed dementia-relatedsubjects, clinical practice, volunteerism, and social services regarding the cognition of dementia in occupationaltherapy majoring college students according to changes in the dementia policy due to an aging population. Thepurpose of this study was to provide a direction of education that can raise the interest in dementia and geriatricoccupational therapy of occupational therapy majors. Methods: The survey was conducted online, targeting university students in Daejeon, Chungnam, Chungbuk, andKyungbuk. The questionnaire was conducted for one month from May 1, 2018, and 207 participants participated. A frequency analysis, independent t-test, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and hierarchical regression wereconducted for the analysis results. Results: Dementia knowledge and policy perception were significantly higher in subjects with dementia-relatedexperiences, and dementia-related experiences and dementia knowledge and policy perception were significantlycorrelated. In addition, dementia-related experiences and awareness of dementia had a significant effect on careerhopes for dementia-related organizations, and the explanatory power of the model was 26.4%. The influence ofvariables on career hopes showed the need for dementia education, policy awareness, experience using socialservices, dementia-related subjects, and gender. Conclusion: To increase interest in dementia knowledge and related policies of college students majoring inoccupational therapy, it is necessary to search for ways to provide various dementia-related experiences withinthe curriculum. Through this, directions for careerists hoping to achieve social change will be suggested, with thehope that it will help improve the professionalism of geriatric occupational therapy.

Objective: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) using neuromuscular electronic stimulation (NMES) andnon-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) were applied for early access to clinicians included in a post-strokeswallowing intervention. A meta-analysis of the research will provide concrete effects and suggestions forimprovement. Methods: We searched articles from 2008 to 2019 published in Pubmed, CINAHL (EBSCOhost), Psycinfo, KoreanStudies Information Service System (KISS), and the Research Information Sharing Service (RISS). The main keywords are “stroke OR CVA OR cerebrocascular accident OR vascular accident” AND “dysphagia OR swallowingdisorder OR deglutition disorder” AND “tDCS OR transcranial direct current stimulation OR rTMS OR repetitivetranscranial magnetic stimulation OR NMES OR neuromuscular electronic stimulation” AND “RCT OR randomizedcontrol trial,” “뇌졸중” AND “연하장애,” AND “경두기 자기자극 OR 경두개 직류자극 OR 신경근전기자극” AND “무작위대조실험.” The inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied to a total of 11 studies. Results: The electrical stimulation intensity of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) was 1 mA, theelectrical stimulation intensity of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) was 3-5 Hz, theneuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) varied from 8 to 15 mA, tDCS and rTMS showed large effect sizes,and NMES demonstrated a medium effect size. Conclusion: This study confirmed the effects of three treatments through a meta-analysis and confirmed thevarious results according to the patients' characteristics and mediation direction. However, three treatments aredeemed effective for the recovery of swallowing disorder after a stroke in Korea and are considered safe. Inaddition, it is necessary to study various factors leading to a recovery of a swallowing disorder.
